Lesbian Feminist Slams the Equality Act: 'H.R. 5 Is a Human Rights Violation'

FTA: "On Tuesday, lesbian feminist Julia Beck, who was kicked off of the Baltimore LGBT Commission because she opposes transgender identity, testified against the federal Equality Act. Her testimony caused quite a stir, with many Democrats expressly asking other witnesses to delegitimize it.

"If the act passes in its current form as H.R. 5, then every right that women have fought for will cease to exist," Beck warned. "H.R. 5 is a human rights violation. Every single person in this country will lose their right to single-sex sports, shelters, grants, and loans. The law will forbid ever distinguishing between women and men."

Beck insisted that she supports the general goal of the Equality Act, but warned against codifying transgender identity into law. People who identify as transgender "still deserve the same basic human rights as we all do, but treating someone as if they are the opposite sex" enshrines a false view of sexuality into law, with disastrous consequences."
